Computer freezing up / Cpus=1

I got the Hackintosh to work with Mavericks for about a month now, and there has been no problems until recently. I was using Pro Tools and out of no where it just freezes. (Before I was using Pro Tools on a daily basis with no problems)

When I manage to start up and log into the OS, it freezes the moment I use Pro Tools.

Any suggestions?

*Look at the post below for Bios Settings

Update: I am able to reboot successfully using the flag "cpus=1". Pro Tools is still NOT working properly. I have done a full reinstall of Pro Tools and all the plugins. Is this a Pro Tools thing? Or is hackintosh thing?

I feel like it could be the cpus=1 flag that is messing with Pro Tools. But then again, it was working perfectly before without any flags.

If I don't enter the flag "cpus=1", sometimes I get hung up on this pictured below. Other times it's the same picture above (system uptime).

Any ideas?

Is it possible for you to post a picture of when it gets stuck on "system uptime in nanoseconds"? This is most likely a kernel panic. I don't really know why it freezes opening Pro Tools.
 
bay dizzy the kernel panic your having is because of power management so boot with -v -x GraphicsEnabler=No boot into Safe Mode and open up Multibeast and install these settings and this should fix your issue hope this helps :thumbup:

I rebooted with the flags "-v" , "-x" , and "GraphicsEnabler=No" and am still stuck at the "System Uptime"
